dilemma
got two 2x12" 8 Ohm G12-65 speakers and i can't decide how to wire them?
to series =16 Ohm, or to parallel = 4 Ohm ?
my combination is OTS with "oval back" 2x 12 cab, any recommends?
thanks in advance
Okay, this only applies to multi-tap transformers. On a multi-tap transformer...the lower the impedance setting, the brighter the tone; the higher the setting, the warmer the tone.
So wiring the cab and using the 4-ohm tap will result in a brighter tone than using the 8-ohm or 16-ohm taps. The 16-ohm will obviously have the opposite effect, the tone will be warmer than the 8- or 4-ohm taps.
This does not mean that all 16-ohm secondary output transformers are warmer tan all 4-ohm output transformers. Once you get to single tap trannies, they can wind them to taste.
